Which one should I choose? Round with Idealscope photos

[generaltso88]

Hi All,

I narrrowed down my search to two diamonds, very similar in price and size but I can't decide on which one. Here are the links and I have attached the ideal-scope photos of each

Thanks for your help!

Two different styles.. so it's all up to your preference or what your looking for. One is a 60/60 (notice the skinny arrows?) and the other a more tolk cut ideal diamond (fatter arrows).

I love 60/60, as it has a tremendous amount of white flashy brilliance. They blind you on sunny days. Also love tolk cuts too though as they demonstrate a lot more colored light return.

Both idealscopes look great. Can't go wrong with either. Like I said, just depends on your personal preference

Both are good. Face up the same.

Honestly it's up to you.

One is a 60/60 (but a good one) and the other is a Tolkowsky style.

This was posted in another thread but it is perfect for you:

Do you notice how the ... 60/60 stone has skinnier arrows than the other [one]? These stones are gorgeous and I personally love the style, they will give off more flashy white light brilliance instead of the colored light return of a traditional tolk. The other diamond... has a smaller table and thicker arrows so you might see a bit more colored light instead of blinding white light.

You really can't go wrong, it's a personal preference now. This shouldn't worry you though, because any choice you make is going to be fabulous and you won't be disappointed. Let us know what you decide!

Thanks everyone for your help! Never knew about the different cuts and styles. I think I will go with the took one since I know she likes colors better than white light. Very glad I went on here to ask for suggestions.

Sounds great!

It's a lovely stone. She'll be thrilled!
